Why would you pay $80 for GTA VI and get one game when you could buy UFO 50 for $25 and get fifty games

Look. I’m not against AI as a coding tool (very anti-AI for anything else though). But Github is blaming their recent outages on an explosion of growth due to AI code, while also selling a sub to their own AI product, while also struggling to make said product profitable.

the demo alone landed STICKER/BALL somewhere on my GOTY list, everyone please play

This is disgusting. I just want to live in peace with my wife, dog, and cats. But every day I wake up and wonder if my country is about to obliterate another one for no reason.

take care of yourself too♡

i don’t like that he’s here, why is he here, someone get him away from the kids

Incredible scene: Travelers wait on hours-long security line at George Bush International Airport in Houston while Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” blasts through the speakers. (video shared directly with me)

been feeling kinda stressed lately so I made a little prototype is this anything

i got the nintendo talking flower and im sorry i love this fucking thing. i thought it would maybe be scary but i put him on my shelf in my office and occasionally hearing him from my desk and turning around to be like "???? what are you saying?" has been a delight

𝔻𝕣𝕒𝕘𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕒 𝕃𝕠𝕤𝕥 Stuff I never posted here..At least I think so.

Slay the Spire 2's concurrent Steam players just hit 179,456, the highest ever for any roguelike. When StS1 first launched back in 2017, it had 193 concurrent players. That's a 92,982% increase, meaning StS3 is on track to hit 166,861,777 concurrent players by 2035. 💪

I tried my hand at redoing Browt and Pombon. Not great but the real designs feel just a little lacking

Burned Tower, Falling Leaves - Pixel 3D Happy 30th Anniversary to all Pokemon fans, from a place of memory and legends! #pixelart #lowpoly

Again, that’s every day

“Relive the Kanto region” What the hell do they mean, we’re forced to relive it every year like a PTSD episode

The AI bubble RAM crisis is caused for non-existent problems by non-existent money for a non-existent infrastructure to meet non-existent demand to make non-existent business and will utterly destroy real business based on real demand and real infrastructure built with real money for real problems.

My cat Noodle is sick today, going to the vet soon. Please send him some love

The only thing that would replace my Steam Deck LCD is a Steam Deck “2.0” with OLED, better battery, and mildly better performance on larger games. Until then, I’m using the OG every day, I love it so much.

jumping into a giant pit in Tears of the Kingdom, day one. sure it was theorized, but I somehow avoided those theories. I was amazed at the scale of that game, and how Nintendo somehow kept that out of marketing.

The LA REINA UPDATE is out now! A new free Rival joins the roster, alongside a new monthly event, stage skin, plus PLENTY of balance changes. Check out the Steam post for all the details!

While not nearly the most important thing going on, I wrote some jokes about why this year AI in video games is going to be the absolute most annoying debate. Even more annoying than it already is. Just deeply annoying.

update, I’m stupid and just needed to use the ResourceSaver

I totally understand people wanting to wait until beastieball is “1.0” to play it. I also don’t usually play early access titles. My main worry at this point is that the game is already so complete and universally beloved, by the time we call it 1.0 i might accidentally make it worse somehow…

This week’s fresh game dev hell involves creating a save system. I thought it’d be easy - serialize some booleans and objects, write to a file, read them later. Nested objects throw a wrench in it all, bloating my save time or making things too complex. I may need to write 20 custom serializers.

I’m a proud owner of a Jojo pose Barbaracle banner

Who has made this 🤣

mario yoshi? yes. yoshi the deadlock dev? no cause infernus still exists

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao

game development is just a series of writing json deserialization code with periodic breaks to do game design

ITS REAL

HOW CAN A CUBE PLAY GAMES IF GAMES ARE MADE OF TRIANGLES. WAKE UP.

Such a good thread

If you show me a fight between Establishment Dems and a paper bag, I’m putting money on the bag

BREAKING: Democratic Representative Ro Khanna has said: "Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced"

Vote out literally every Democrat senator when you can. The Republicans owned the shutdown until one hour ago. Now we all suffered for nothing.
